A RESTful API allows developers to interact with all aspects of its open data platform, including extension development and the easy migration of data from other services and systems, including legacy systems.

Advanced access controls

Set permission settings to control critical and sensitive internal data at a group or individual level, to fit the needs of a particular project or your organisation more generally. 

Greater data visualisation

Enable greater data visualisation by utilising extensions designed to integrate seamlessly with the user’s existing data tooling.

CKAN is also highly customisable through a wide variety of extensions that can vastly increase its basic functionality and integrate in a seamless manner with a user’s existing data and digital operations. 

Link Digital is trusted by the University of Manitoba

“CKAN customized schemas have allowed us to be searchable by Google dataset searches and other global partners, which is key to findability of our datasets. Being able to build it into our metadata templates saves us significant time and allows us to let our users fill in the forms.

The user permissions allow us to provide data sovereignty to various groups and give them granular control over their data.”

– Claire Herbert, Data Manager, Faculty of Centre for Earth Observation Science, University of Manitoba
